Following the success of the inaugural session, the Department of Climate and Disaster Management has arranged the second session of 'Disaster Talk’. This time, three enthusiastic students from the 3^rd year (Session 2020-2021) and 4^th year (Session 2019-2020) presented three significant events: COP 28, the El Nino phenomenon, and the Noto Peninsula earthquake in Japan. However, all the students and faculty members actively engaged in the discussion.

Md. Rifat Hossain Nirob, a dynamic presenter from the 3^rd year, captivated the audience with his insightful overview of COP 28 (United Nations Climate Change Conference), held in Dubai from November 30 to December 12, 2023. He highlighted COP 28's crucial role in addressing global climate challenges and left the audience with an empowering message, urging everyone to recognize their role as active participants rather than passive observers in the collective effort to combat climate change.

Md. Sojib Molla, another enthusiastic student from the 3^rd year, presented El Nino's impact, highlighting extreme weather patterns, historical events, and the 2023 temperature anomaly. He proposed a proactive approach for Bangladesh, drawing lessons from the Philippines and Vietnam, and finally concluded with some recommendations aimed at addressing the challenges posed by El Nino in Bangladesh.

At last, Akhi Adhikary, an energetic 4^th year student, delivered a comprehensive overview of Japan's most recent earthquake (which occurred on January 1, 2024), highlighting the nation's vulnerability due to active tectonics. Akhi's presentation underscored the importance of preparedness, swift response, and collaboration in the face of natural disasters, offering a valuable perspective for communities worldwide.
